Find excuses to daily drive it.

Nought a used 2012 Evora N/A in 2017. Thrilling car. Feel totally connected to this machine driving it in a way I only otherwise had i n a 1973 911 years ago. This car expands on that feeling with more of everything. Exceptional handling. Stock clutch wasnt great but had an Evora gt clutch installed and it hasbecome more exciting still. Hard to call it totally reliable toyota engine. Gas cap just brokeHad a door sensor replaced a door sensor, master cylinder, slave cylinder and now clutch replaced. Would have a problem with all of that if I didnt love this car so much.

Time to move on, but I'll miss the Evora

The Lotus Evora is a gorgeous car that handles sublimely. Lotus prices they have a unique ability to make a car that drives like it's on rails without being you up in the process. It almost makes it as a daily driver, but ultimately, dated interior features become difficult to live with. Still, it is a very desirable semi-exotic.

Unbelievable performance + comfort

It is by far one of the best cars i have ever owned, incredibly amazing, soft on bumps, competitive as other serious performance cars on the track... My only issue with this car, it turns waaaaaay too many heads when you drive to apoint where other drivers on the road become distracted. That needs to be addressed, all and all, it's a trouble free vehicle.

Just drove it across the country

The exterior design of the Evora is simply an artistic achievement. The Superchrger and the Sport Mode in this car made it faster than anything I had driven. The best 0 to 60 I had attained was about 5 seconds in a Mercedez CLS550. With this car I achieved 0 to 60 in about 4 seconds (It is hard to time it when you are so excited seeing the world zoom in before you. I am not a motorcyclist, but I think this must be how they feel). You can feel the power surging above 3000 rpm and it just wants to go faster and faster. At 110 mph it felt stable and confident as if I was going 70 mph in other cars. I knew I could go much faster. The best part of this car is the handling. It is simply fantastic. I am kind of an older guy so I did not have the urge to prove anyting but I can see a younger me going crazy with it. This is not a car that you buy to put into the garage and to look at once in a while. This is a car that you buy to drive and enjoy. In that regard it is more similar to a Porsche than a Ferrari, but it definitely has the exclusivity feel of a Ferrari rather than the never changing design of a Porsche.

True Drivers Car

One of the best combinations of race car handling, luxury interior, and quickness that money can buy. The only car in the sub 100k (probably sub 300k) market that can deliver this amount of raw enjoyment mixed with comfort.
